The Nuggets have played at the 5th-most sluggish pace in the NBA while playing away from home this year.The Nuggets rank as the 8th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA since the start of last season (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate additional chances for scoring and assists).Since the start of last season, the other team has come down with 11.1 offensive boards per game (5th-most in the league) vs. the Timberwolves (saving possessions that can create bonus opportunities for offense).Since the start of last season, the other team has attempted 25.4 free throws per game (4th-most in the league) vs. the Minnesota Timberwolves, easily managing to get to the charity stripe.Reggie Jackson will not hold the home court advantage in this matchup. Playing away from your home stadium usually reduces player performance in all facets of the game.
